BIO

My journey in photography started in 1984 as an industrial photographer.

I have always been fascinated by trains, however, by the time I was old enough to see trains, the Steam Era had passed me by.

In the not-too-distant past, I had a distant cousin that was the engineer for the maiden run of the California Zepher. As a younger person, I did model railroading in the O gauge, HO gauge, and N scale.

For a short time, I did some work at the CN&W Railway Global One facility photographing Double stack Trains and operations.

I was born in Chicago and attended the College of DuPage, receiving an Associate in Applied Science Photographic Technology. in 2016. My body of work ranges from URBEX to Fine Art Nudes. Since 2011, My projects have been exhibited at the Louvre museum in Paris France, and several galleries in the United States and Abroad. Several Park Districts utilize his teaching skills in Illinois, and formally at Waubonsee Community College (Sugar Grove, IL.) where I was an adjunct instructor.

My parent company is Photographic Services International Inc., since 1985.

Since 2011 I have been exhibiting in many art galleries in both  Featured artists and Group shows. I was a Resident Artist at Gallery 200 in West Chicago, IL. for 8 years, and  2 years as an artist with Art For All located in Elgin, IL.

I  only sell my work at railroad Shows in the Midwest do to the high cost of shipping.
